Vector readout: The 2001–2003 window contains 20+ selected signals across 15+ states. The 2013–2015 window adds 30+ across 15+ states. The 2017–2019 combined history contains 20+ selected signals across 10+ states under broader research coverage, with a partial 2026 segment.
The 2017–2019 window has a broader source mix than the earlier house-report windows. The 2026 segment is partial. Development report years may precede the opening year recorded for a restaurant.
RestaurantData source trail: Archived house reports provide the solid trail through 2016. From 2017 on, the combined records include later house reports and researched opening years, so house reports continue within the dotted segment. A development report year and an opening year can differ for the same location.

Source: RestaurantData archived U.S. development reports and supporting restaurant-location research. Headquarters, franchisee offices, unrelated namesakes, renovations, transfers and unresolved addresses are excluded. Signal counts of 10 or more are rounded down to tens; counts from 5 to 9 use that range. State bands of 5 or more are rounded down to multiples of 5. Smaller counts are shown directly. The District of Columbia is identified separately.
The latest included dated evidence is 2026. The 2026 segment is partial. Development reports may describe planned restaurants. The six examples use the date basis shown on each card. A report year is not necessarily an opening year, and location verification dates are not used as opening dates. Historical locations may have closed.
The solid segment uses archived house report dates through 2016. Combined records, from 2017 on, add researched opening years and continuing house reports. Markers identify years with selected dated evidence; connecting lines are illustrative between those years. Coverage varies across jurisdictions and years. These selections do not represent complete opening totals, current operating units or net growth. Gaps alone do not establish a pause or contraction.
